” Who wrote the Bible? The early Church”

Well, parts. Moses wrote the first five, at least the majority. David of course was a writer; Solomon, all those prophets - so it was not just the early church.

The New Testament was written by the apostles. A couple of the books don’t claim a human author - I think Hebrews is one of those. If you want to call the apostles the early Church I suppose I could go with that. They were certainly the authorities of the early Church, and rightly so.

Well, Hebrews has an author. Who he is is at present unknown and was unknown in the time of Origen.
